Warm Curried Chicken Salad



Whether you just grill them and serve them with a salad and good bread or dress them up as a salad as I do here, Trader Joe's curry chicken tenders are delicious. Even the kids like them. Don't overcook them - about 3 minutes per side is just about right. This warm curried chicken salad was a hit with everyone and would make a great lunch for a crowd if you're entertaining or a fantastic picnic lunch.

Serves 6-8

Preparation time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 bag Trader Joe’s Curry Chicken Tenders
  • 6 tablespoons Trader Joe’s Mango Ginger Chutney
  • 1/3 cup Trader Joe’s low-fat mayonnaise
  • ¼ teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1 bag Trader Joe’s Whole Wheat Pita Pocket Bread or Whole Wheat Bread
  • 1 bag Trader Joe’s Organics Baby Spring Mix (bagged salad)

Preparation:

  1. Preheat the broiler on high and place oven rack in top most position. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray so food won’t stick. Open bag of chicken tenders and lay them on the sheet. Broil 3 minutes each side, or until cooked through.
  2. Meanwhile make the dressing by stirring together mayonnaise, chutney and salt in medium bowl.
  3. When chicken is done, transfer in batches to a cutting board and cut each tender into 3 equal width pieces lengthwise and then cut crosswise to cube. Transfer to mixing bowl with dressing and stir to mix well. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt if desired.
  4. Place a handful of salad mix into pita pocket and then spoon in warm chicken salad to fill. Serve immediately.
